A poster Honoring Elizabeth Peratrovich. The poster is a beautiful drawing of Elizabeth Peratrovich surrounded by various Alaska flowers. A banner underneath her drawing reads Elizabeth Peratrovich Day February 16, 2025. "Elizabeth Peratrovich was a Tlingit activist whose efforts led to the passage of the Alaska Anti-Discrimination Act of 1945, the first civil rights legislation in the U.S. At a time when signs reading “No Natives Allowed” were common, she and her husband Roy Peratrovich fought against segregation and discrimination. Her passionate speech before the Alaska Legislature helped secure the law’s passage, breaking down barriers and paving the way for future civil rights advancements. Her work significantly impacted Alaska Native political participation, yet challenges remain. Systemic barriers such as language access issues, geographic isolation, strict voter ID laws, and redistricting continue to disenfranchise Native voters. Many Indigenous communities still struggle with voting access, making continued advocacy essential. We celebrate Elizabeth Peratrovich Day on February 16th to honor her courage and to inspire ongoing efforts toward justice. Her fight is now ours, and ensuring fair voting rights for all remains a crucial battle. By advocating for better access and representation, we keep her vision of equality alive." https://narf.org/peratrovich-day/
